Forgive John Legend if he feels like the other Voice coaches are picking on him. In the first episode of The Voice blind auditions, Kelly Clarkson and Blake Shelton blocked John to land artists they wanted for their teams. Tuesday night, it was Adam Levine’s turn to block the new Voice coach. That helped him…
Seconds after Maelyn Jarmon started singing “Fields of Gold” on The Voice, coaches’ chairs starting turning. Forty seconds in, she’d become the first singer in Season 16 to earn a four-chair. But Mealyn admits it took her just a bit longer to process what had happened. “I honestly didn’t even realize they had turned right…
What a difference two years makes. Back in February 2017, Matthew Johnson went to an open call audition for The Voice in Baltimore, Md. He didn’t make it past the first round.

Adam Lambert and Jennifer Hudson took the stage during the Oscars Sunday night.
